If I might make a point?

Where money is involved, there will be a prenup. contract. People set their own values. Each person; MAN or WOMAN; will handle money, AS THEY CHOSE. Pretty simple.

its a personal choice really, I would not want to set up a mine and yours type of foundation in a marriage personally,, for me its about 'us' and shouldn't require separate assets

however, in todays age, where people are so caught up in marriage being about all this 'civil' stuff like survivor 'benefits' and medical authority,,etc,,,etc,,, and where people kill each other over money

I would not get married at all, except in a religious ceremony, so that we could indeed have mutual assets together by virtue of a common last name,, yet there would be no obligation to do any splitting of anything in the event things didn't work out,,,,

If a relationship is based solely on looks.., than it will eventually fail..

If a relationship is based solely on money.., than it will eventually fail...

Neither are a good reason to get into the relationship in the first place.. (in my opinion)..

There needs to be a "mutual desire" for everything about the other person.. (again.. in my opinion)..

A confident man who knows who he is and is happy with who he is and what he has to offer, need not be intimidated.

What do you have to offer a woman who is wealthy and independent? Love, sex, companionship, etc.

If the woman only wants the wealth, and does not care for the character of the man himself as long as he has money, then it looks more like a business arrangement than a marriage.

I would love to have lots of money and independence.... and maybe someone interesting to share it with.

I would not want a man who feared my independence. Only an insecure man would want a woman to be dependent on him.

Give us something that money can't buy.

Your'e smart. You'll figure it out.

Be interesting, be great, be independent yourself.

Great post, your Honor..

But this was my favorite line..

.."A confident man who knows who he is and is happy with who he is and what he has to offer, need not be intimidated."....

Can you make this a new law..?

I agree with most of what you have said, but it is still hard to find people who think this way..

.."but here's another secret... you should be good in the sack."

This court is out of order..!

Goes both ways.

bahahaaa

I only go one way, though...

I agree.. At least.., be matched with each other..

" It seems to me that you men make money the prime concern. You tell a woman that you will take care of her financially; you try to buy her love with gifts, or you try to impress her with your financial status. You don't help the situation for yourselves with that type of behaviour and neither does the brainwashing of generations of men and women that were raised that way. Funny thing is you guys get mad when a woman wants you for money; yet when she is independent like me and doesn't need your money; you get mad too. WTF? There is just no pleasing you one way or the other. frustrated"


wow

Not all women are attracted by wealth, just like all men are not attracted by stunning good looks. Some want more.

I don't need a rich man. I want a good man, who wants a good lady with a lot of love to share..

wealth in and of itself? why no, I doubt anyone is repelled by wealth....who is holding the wallet could be a critical issue tho :)

I rate personal values far above a man's bank account balance.

So what do i have to offer? I was once a terrible individual, drank too much, ran around, did lots of drugs. I went to prison for 9 years for my actions. I found spirituality there, completely changed my life. Now that Im free Im trying to rebuild my life from scratch, I work ,but its going to take awhile before I get everything I lost. Now the women and wealth part, do i have to wait until I can offer her the world, or are there women out there that will give a person such as myself a chance?

Looked at the title.. and thought I should ask the reverse..?

Are any women attracted by poverty..?

It really depends on your game, your mental disposition. If you use your talents, your interlect and present yourself accordingly, women have no discretion about differences, lackness of, the scarsity of the things material in her environment. Yes, money makes one happy! Can't live without it. One thing about romance, ...it doesn't take a masters degree in psychology or a pocket full of money to be her knight in shining armour, but a combination, a sequence of compliments and gestures to signify you are paying close attention, that you care and you are a gladiator in the quest of life. It's your mind she falls inlove with, not your possessions. It's just that simply!
Love is a woman's nature. Men can't have babies, so what he has to do has to be cultural. He have to show and present to her challenges, objectives, laughter and affection. Pioneer the unknown!!! Create a world of dreams and fantacies! She's a rose waiting to bloom! You hold that rose with all your strength, even when the bleeding starts created by the woes of life, the labor of her love, the ability to withstand and maintain! These are the things that brings out the real beauty in a woman!

If you believe in yourself and your quest, it shall become. But, you must have a plan. Again, the question is, what will you bring to the table. Then, you should understand, many people come together for different reasons. Ask yourself, what is the mission of a knight in shining armour? Rescue and captivate or control?

Thanks
